Storycorps launched the National Day of Listening as a way to encourage families to set aside the day after Thanksgiving as a time to share and record the history of their family, friends, and community. Use the Library’s recording studio to capture your interview on our equipment or use your phone in our acoustically ready space. Call the King Road Branch at 419-259-5380 to reserve your time. Visit http://diy.storycorps.org/learn-more/ for the DIY guide of great questions and to upload your recording to Storycorps’ Wall of Listening. Copies of the questions will also be available for pickup at the King Road Branch at the beginning of November. #NationalDayofListening
